Bonus flags are special tiles introduced in Chip's Challenge 2. Collecting them rewards the player with additional bonus points added to the level score after completing the level.[note 1] The player's points are displayed in the bottom-left corner of the game window whenever the amount is greater than 0. The red, orange, and yellow flags award 10, 100, and 1000 points respectively, while the blue flag doubles the current total. The game sets a hard limit of 9,999,999 points: any points in excess of this amount that the player would normally receive from a bonus flag are simply ignored.
Bonus flags are static objects and behave as walls to all monsters, with a few exceptions. Ghosts, ice blocks, and directional blocks will pass through bonus flags without interacting with them, and rovers, bowling balls, and player mirrors will collect bonus flags, but the player will receive no points.
Thieves will halve the current bonus, rounding down to the nearest integer, unless the player has a bribe, in which case the bribe will be taken and the bonus left unchanged. As such, it is usually wise to collect bonus flags after stepping on any thieves when possible. If a bonus flag is placed on top of a thief, the flag will be collected and its points added before the thief takes effect. It is also usually wise to avoid bonuses that are too out of the way, as each second remaining on the clock when the level ends is worth 10 points.
Notes[edit]
- ↑ In this article, the terms "bonus" and "points" will refer exclusively to points obtained from bonus flags, as opposed to the level bonus or time bonus (see Chip's Challenge scoring).
